"Paul and the Printing Press" by Sara Ware Bassett is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Paul Cameron, a high school student with a passion for journalism, as he embarks on an ambitious project to launch his school’s first paper, the "March Hare". Faced with challenges concerning funding, printing, and managing a team of enthusiastic classmates, Paul’s journey illustrates themes of creativity, leadership, and the importance of collaboration. The opening of the book introduces Paul’s idea for a school newspaper during a dinner conversation with his father, where his father humorously questions his ambition. Paul passionately outlines his vision for the paper, emphasizing its potential to document the school’s activities and showcase the talents of his classmates. Despite his father’s initial skepticism about the financial challenges of buying a printing press, this conversation leads Paul to enlist the help of a friend, and they enthusiastically brainstorm ways to fund and promote the newspaper. The narrative captures Paul's enthusiasm and determination, setting the stage for his ensuing adventures in bringing the "March Hare" to fruition. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
